They have the best customer service of any rental company I’ve dealt with in the United States. Jason Mcdonald out of the North East Tennessee branch is (WAY) better than top notch! He is the number one reason I come back project after project for my rental needs. He has helped me after hours from home to pull strings for things that pop up last minute. He is hands down the best I’ve had the chance to work with. True class act.

This is one of those stories that just happens when you are trying to coordinate multiple work crews and contractors. We were scheduled for several trucks to arrive, needed a forklift. I scheduled the delivery from United, no problem. A day ahead of schedule the trucks showed up, so I called United to see if we could get it a day early, as soon as possible. I called at 10 am, they had the forklift there by noon. This is not the first time we've rented from them but this time I had to leave a review, they really helped us out. I would not go anywhere else for equipment rental in the Tri-cities. We have rented forklifts as well as the big four-wheel drive boom lifts from them without any problem. Equipment has always been clean and no maintenance issues.
